Gatehouse Restaurant, on The Culinary Institute of America’s historic St. Helena facility, is the capstone experience for CIA students after two years of rigorous culinary, baking and pastry, hospitality and beverage management instruction. These future industry leaders transform the freshest regional ingredients, as well as those from the CIA’s own farm and herb gardens into creative contemporary dishes, served graciously in a refined yet casual dining room.

The menu features pastries, cookies, soups, salads, sandwiches, and sides made by our baking & pastry arts students and faculty.

In addition, The Bakery Café by illy has a full menu of illy coffee drinks, Dammann Freres tea, house-made beverages, wines by the glass and local microbrews.
